what is tabindex and tabid

Helo all,

Does anybody knows what about the tabindex and tabid variables in QueryString? For example:

http://www.asp.net/Default.aspx?tabindex=2&tabid=31

that displays the Control Gallery page on www.asp.net
I think a single page implements several functionality and by this tabindex one selects and runs the requested one. I'm coming from PHP world where one can dinamically include the appropiate script. Is this something similar?

I saw that Default.aspx at ww.asp.net is responsible for a lot of pages. Can anybody describe the phenomenon or at leats send me a link for self-documenting myself?

Thanks a lot,
keresoHi,

tabindex is just used to set the highlighted tab. For example: this post has this url:
http://asp.net/Forums/ShowPost.aspx?tabindex=1&PostID=712598

if you would change the tabindex to another number, let's say 5 like this:

http://asp.net/Forums/ShowPost.aspx?tabindex=5&PostID=712598

the page would still show only the tab "Mobile" is highlighted this time.

If you take a look at the time tracker starter kit you can see some code that they've used. I also used it in one of my previous projects ;-) .

Grz, Kris.
Hi Kris,

Ok, I got it, thanks a lot!
I was confused because I usually use the post method for passind data from one page to other. Nut in some situations indeed, it is better to use a tabindex, its easy to redirect the page.

The TT is great, I'm studying it right now!
